Yea i've been on the track before but its pretty shameful lol. I ran a 14.00. I had just put my MGW in and when i did i used a ws6store short stick and i still had my stock master. I made 3 runs everytime i missed 4th gear. I don't know if it was my nerves because i'd never been to a track or what. It felt like it was locking me out of 4th but i dunno. After that i came straight home and ordered a tick and put the MGW handle back on and I haven't missed 4th but maybe once since then. So i guess whatever it was i fixed and i also had a 2.5 60 foot time it spint all the way through 1st and 2nd the track sucked. and im running sumitomo tires. The highest i trapped was 99. It was more or less coasting across the finish line. Whenever i would miss it i had to fight it back in.

Agreed 100%. If you had just flowpack/LT's/tune and 3.23 gears you would still take him from a roll if he is stock. With your current mods you would take him even if he had a tune, CAI, LT's, and exhaust as long as you didnt spin.
Whats up with lying to him about your mods though? Man up and let him know about the cam- it's only gonna make you look like a tool to show up with a loping cam when all he thinks you have is exhaust work done. That's the kind of thing I used to hate about the juvenile Mustang and import crowd: "It's stock except for the exhaust".

And I agree it's a pretty chicken **** move to lie about mods. But it is what it is. Some have integrity- some don't.

Mine weighed just over 3800 with me an an 1/8th of a tank of gas. Although I'm sure the stroker doesn't help.
3400-3500 sounds right for an LS1 f-body depending on mods etc.
